Facebook, Google and Plaxo decide to play nice with each other. Dave Langley

January 10th, 2008

I for one am excited about this.  Facebook has joined the DataPortability Workgroup with Google and Plaxo.  This is positive because it is a sign that Facebook is loosening its previously closed standards.  The Workgroup is trying to create best practices that will allow users to access their friends and media across many applications. 

Some good links on the topic:

    I’m going to have to check this out. I have so many apps to keep straight so it’s nice when I can integrate them. I honestly don’t even know how I ended up on Plaxo.
